Rugby great, Kyran Bracken has pledged his support and will be doing the Mile in Milton Keynes on the day. He said “Sport Relief is back with a bang in 2010 and I’ll be doing my bit by taking part in the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile in Milton Keynes on Sunday 21 March, so why not come down to Midsummer Boulevard and be part of the fun filled day too?
 
“This year Sport Relief is set to be bigger and better than ever before. Not only can you rise to the challenge by running 1, 3 or 6 Miles, but by getting sponsored you will be helping to raise money for poor and disadvantaged people across the UK and some of the world’s poorest countries. Go on, give it a go enter now at sportrelief.com.”
 
The Milton Keynes Mile starts in the heart of the city on Midsummer Boulevard and promises to be a jam-packed day of fun entertainment for all the family. With 1, 3 or 6 mile distances to choose from, there is a mile for everyone, from the super sporty to those who just want to have fun.
 
Coverage from the Mile events will be shown during The Sport Relief Mile Show on Sunday 21st March on BBC ONE, with those participating as the stars of the show. Hundreds of thousands of people across the UK are expected to be rising to the challenge, and best of all, the money raised by the public will help transform lives forever. Be a part of it and enter the Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile right now at www.sportrelief.com.
 
To add a twist to the Milton Keynes Mile, Hula Hoops is encouraging the nation to help set a new world record for the most people hula hooping simultaneously across the UK. Places are limited so go to hulahoops.com to sign up.
 
Sport Relief is working with Milton Keynes Council to deliver the Milton Keynes Mile.
